A SPECIAL REQUEST

About a month ago I posted the news that AJ had put in his papers for his mission. It took a long year before he was able to submit those papers. He wants so badly to serve a mission and that year of waiting was difficult for him.

Unfortunately, he has hit another snag in his quest and this time it is hitting him very hard. I am afraid he is close to giving up his dream, and I know that is not what he wants.

Tonight he asked me if I would "ask all your ladies" if you would pray for him and if you can, join us in a fast next Sunday, the 20th, that he might be able to fulfill his desire to serve a mission.

Those of you who know AJ know what a great person he is and what a wonderful missionary he will make. Please remember him in your prayers that this might happen for him. Thank you very much.

Oh AJ, we WILL pray for you! You will make an awesome missionary!! Just know that the Lord is preparing you for things beyond your comprehension right now. That could be said for us ALL, I guess. We love you!!!

Count us in too! AJ is such a fine young man, and I know he wants this so bad. It reminds me of the quote "I never said it would be easy, I only said it would be worth it." You tell him not to give up, to keep on truckin' and know that we all love and support him.

When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies? To surrender dreams--this may be madness; to seek treasure where there is only trash. Too much sanity may be madness! But maddest of all--to see life as it is and not as it should be.
